Bio :
I’m Sowmya, from Tamil nadu, India. I did my bachelor’s in Computer Science and Engineering
and worked at Verizon as a Software Developer for about 2 years. I worked with Data and UI
creating a dashboard for Verizon FIOS. I worked on creating Report, a bug tool for
customer service agents and network technicians to report issues. I was also involved in
an application for Network Troubleshooting and Fault Isolation used by the same
technicians. Working with data intrigued me to learn more about it and I applied for the
Data Science master’s program at UNT.
